Chapter 319: Quid pro quo
"Moon Teahouse. As soon as Gu Zhirong got into the carriage, he instructed the woman who drove the car, and then turned to the two maids who were following him, Mingyue Lushuidao, "When you get there, you two don't go in, just find a seat outside and sit and wait for me." ”
The bright moon and green water hurriedly responded.
The chauffeur had good driving skills, and the carriage soon drove to the moon teahouse on the outskirts of the city.
As soon as the owner of the teahouse saw a magnificent carriage parked outside, he immediately greeted him personally. Seeing that it was Gu Zhirong who came out of the car, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face, and said, "Miss Gu, are you here?" ”
Since Gu Zhirong took over all the fields and shops in Sanfang from the hands of the old lady, if there was nothing else, Gu Zhirong would take a carriage to inspect all streets and shops, so people on every street almost recognized her.
The owner of the teahouse took two steps forward, walked to Gu Zhirong's side, and said in a low voice: "Miss Gu, the one you made an appointment with has already arrived, and he is in the east wing on the left upstairs." ”
Gu Zhirong nodded and went straight upstairs.
In the east wing room on the left, a young girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old was sitting precariously. Her face is delicate, wearing a moon-white embroidered light pink hibiscus blooming Ge Yun thick gown, a green pea-colored eight-treasure Bentu Hunan skirt, cloud sideburns are high, and she wears all pearl hairpins, three on the left and three on the right, generous and dignified, but a pair of slightly drooping Danfeng eyes are faintly shrewd and capable.
A person who has helped his mother with the business for many years, if he still maintains the innocent eyes of a little girl, it is really strange.
"Heart girl. There you are. Gu Zhirong stood at the door for a while before pushing the door in.
Gu Wenxin was not surprised at all when he saw someone coming in. Stand up and greet you.
Gu Zhirong sat down and looked at Gu Wenxin seriously, very satisfied. She took a sip of tea and said, "If you don't mind, can you let me change my words and call you a sister." ”
Gu Wenxin smiled faintly: "I was originally older than you." It's also reasonable for you to call me sister. ”
Gu Zhirong smiled: "You know I didn't mean that. ”
Gu Wenxin also smiled: "Since that time, you have arrived at our embroidery village." After suddenly rushing into our backyard and discovering the secret in the rockery, I guessed that there would be such a day. ”
She looked up, as if she was mentally prepared: "Say it." Do you want us to move out of the capital right away?"
Seeing that Gu Zhirong did not speak. She added: "Don't worry, since you have found out, our mother and son have no intention of staying in the capital, you said that if you don't keep us tomorrow, we will definitely move out today." ”
Gu Zhirong frowned slightly: "It seems that Sister Xin is very hostile to me. ”
"Otherwise?" Gu Wenxin said arrogantly, "I still have to kneel down and cry and cry and beg you, don't let our mother and daughter leave the capital?"
Gu Zhirong's face turned cold: "If I say it, I mean to let you leave the capital immediately." Never come back, will you leave?"
Gu Wenxin was stunned for a moment. looked at Gu Zhirong in a daze.
Gu Zhirong shook his head slightly. It seems that what he said just now was just reckless words, but now if he wants to tell them to leave immediately, this person will immediately wilt.
Just now, she thought that this Gu Wenxin had a lot of backbone, full of hardness, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that. If she is really a backbone person, she should move out of the capital as soon as possible after the day she broke into Gan Yi Embroidery Village. Now it seems that the mother and daughter are very forbearing. This is just right, and her plan needs to be implemented by the family.
"Don't worry, I won't let your family leave the capital. Gu Zhirong smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip before saying, "You are the uncle's biological daughter and my cousin, how can I be willing to let you leave the capital?"
"Then why did you ask me to come here?" Gu Wenxin wondered.
"Of course it's a good thing, that's why I'm here to tell you personally. Gu Zhirong looked at her and smiled kindly, as if she was her sister, "By the way, I will help you realize your true wish to stay in the capital all these years and not leave." ”
Gu Wenxin was visibly shaken. She looked at the stranger in front of her in disbelief. The real reason why they have stayed in the capital and not leaving, even Master Gu may not be able to completely guess it, but the little girl in front of her can say a word, can it not make her tremble?
She was flustered, and subconsciously wanted to pick up the teacup to drink tea, but her hand was not steady, the cup almost left her hand, tilted, and a few drops of tea splashed out and splashed on her clothes, she hurriedly took a handkerchief to wipe it.
"Sister Xin, don't be nervous, if I really have bad intentions, I would have told the old lady about your affairs a long time ago. Gu Zhirong said with a smile, "So, don't worry, I asked you out this time, and there is absolutely no malice." ”
Speaking of this, she winked at Gu Wenxin: "Not only is it not malicious, but it is still a great thing for you." ”
"Oh, is it?" Gu Wenxin looked at Gu Zhirong in disbelief.
Gu Zhirong smiled: "Don't believe it, do you? Then what I can tell you is that in two days, you and your mother will be able to enter the Yuanning Marquis Mansion openly." ”
"Enter the Yuanning Marquis Mansion?" Gu Wenxin twisted his eyebrows slightly and looked at Gu Zhirong.
For a long time, it has always been a long-standing dream of myself, my mother, and my brother to enter the Yuanning Hou Mansion, become a member of the Yuanning Hou Mansion, and achieve my own identity and status. However, because the eldest lord is afraid of the inside, and the eldest lady's background and means are terrifying, they only dare to think about it in their hearts, and there is no way to really put it into practice. What's more, the three of them are all arrogant people, and they are neighbors to be aunts and concubines, and they are looked down upon, and they would rather be cold than enter the house.
"Miss Gu Wu. Gu Wenxin shook his head, "I think you still misunderstood, it's not that we don't want to enter the mansion all these years, but we don't want to enter the mansion at all." ”
"Then I promise you that I will help your mother win the position of the stepfamily, how about it?" Gu Zhirong looked at her with blazing eyes.
Gu Wenxin was shocked again, and this time, the gaze she looked at was in disbelief at what Gu Zhirong said.
"You ......" she looked at Gu Zhirong and hesitated, "Can you do it?"
Gu Zhirong didn't mind her questioning gaze at all, and smiled slightly: "As for whether I can do it or not, when you enter the mansion, won't you know?"
Gu Wenxin was about to say anything more, but Gu Zhirong interrupted her words and said, "Do you want to cooperate with me, you can go back and discuss with your mother and your sibling brother, and I will wait for your good news." However, before that, I can promise you one condition, if you can cooperate with me and cooperate with me, I will give you a big gift as a token of gratitude. ”
"Oh, what kind of gift?" Gu Wenxin said casually, "You rich ladies, you are just giving away some jewels and hairpins and the like, although my family background is not as good as yours, I am not short of these things." ”
"Then ......" Gu Zhirong's eyes rolled, "Then what do you think of the position of the crown princess?"
"What!" Gu Wenxin jumped in shock, hit the table, the tea on the table immediately overturned, and the "ping pong" spilled on the ground, causing the teahouse owner to run up in a panic and push open the door to take a look.
Gu Zhirong glanced at the tea board boss and smiled slightly: "It's okay, it's just that I accidentally spilled the tea, you let people come in to clean it, and then replace it with new tea." ”
"Okay. Of course, the owner of the teahouse understood that these rich and noble people talked about things and didn't like others to disturb them, so he cleaned up with his own hands and brought fresh tea up. (To be continued.) )
